Aanbieding 1 met studiegidsnummer 1024091BNR voor alle studenten in het 2e semester met een verdiepend bachelor niveau.
This is an advanced course in (academic) English, which is targeted at students who already have a very good command of the language (as determined by participation in the ACTO placement test), and who wish to further refine their knowledge of the language.
There are three core components to the course:
· Language focus: The emphasis here lies on the acquisition and use of upper-intermediate vocabulary and grammar features typical of an academic context.
· Writing workshops These focus on the structure and register appropriate for academic writing. Students have the opportunity to receive feedback from their tutor and peers on their own writing during writing clinics.
· Speaking sessions: The aim is to give participants maximal opportunity to participate actively in realistic contexts for the use of (academic) English, through a series of discussion sessions. These are conducted on the basis of a variety of texts drawn from a range of Anglophone sources, allowing students to develop their (critical) reading, listening and speaking skills.
Students who have already passed Academic English 5 cannot take this course.
Course material is made available throughout the semester via Canvas. Attendance in class is compulsory for this course.
Please note that in order to register for this course students must:
